Mole Removal in Chennai

What are Moles?

Moles are black or brown spots on the body. Medically called 'nevi,' moles can form single marks or appear in clusters. While some moles are natural and present from birth, others are due to external or additional factors. Even though most moles are harmless, they can also become a severe health concern.

At times, they grow in size, become painful, start bleeding, cause rashes or itching, or even worse, cancer. In such cases, you should not rely on traditional or home remedies, as they may damage the skin. Instead, contacting a skin care specialist would be best to ensure the mole does not cause a severe problem. Labelle's expert dermatologists in Chennai will schedule a one-on-one session to discuss the mole's size, condition, and affected areas to design a curated plan to fix it.

What Causes Moles?

Despite technological and medical advancements, the precise reason for mole formation remains unknown. However, a common cause of moles is linked to melanin. When melanocytes, the body's skin cells, produce melanin, the pigment colors the skin. Sometimes, melanocytes create clusters and release black or brown-colored spots, now known as moles.

There are two types of moles: congenital (present from birth) and acquired (that form later due to causes other than birth).

Where Do Moles Form?

Moles can form on any body part as single spots or in clusters. Some common areas of mole formation are:

• Face
• Hands
• Neck
• Arms
• Legs
• Back
• Stomach

Mole Removal Treatments in Chennai at Labelle

Labelle offers two effective, safe, and painless mole-removal treatments: laser and radiofrequency.

Laser Mole Removal

The laser procedure is one of the most sought-out mole-removal treatments. This non-invasive treatment quickly removes moles without damaging the surrounding skin, tissues, or cells. Furthermore, since it does not require surgery, it reduces the chances of acquiring an infection or leaving a post-procedure scar.

Our expert dermatologists take the utmost care and precautions to make the mole removal in Chennai procedure comfortable and swift. Before commencing the laser mole-removal treatment, the dermatologist will provide local anesthesia to numb the affected area and ensure you feel no discomfort or pain. You can choose a skin-numbing cream or lotion to numb the skin or opt for anesthetics that can be injected into the skin.

Labelle's skincare specialists use the latest and world-class laser equipment and technologies to remove the moles effectively. This treatment has no severe side effects. However, post-treatment, you may experience temporary side effects, such as minor discomfort or itching. If these side effects persist long, contact your dermatologist immediately.

Radiofrequency

The second mole-removal package we offer is radiofrequency. While you can choose this treatment to eliminate moles on any body area, it is the most effective when treating facial moles or skin tumors, as it requires a low-scarring cosmetic procedure. Another factor to remember is that treatment works best for moles; using it to treat warts may worsen the condition.

Our dermatologist will use an Ellman radiosurgery electrode loop to remove protruding moles during this treatment. This cream will slowly and gently remove the mole from your skin, one layer at a time. The Ellman radiosurgery equipment is set at a radio frequency to match your skin texture, skin tone, and the mole's size and thickness, allowing our dermatologist to remove the mole with precision without scarring the skin or tissues.

While laser mole removal in Chennai removes the mole instantly and has zero downtime, radiofrequency may take one to two weeks for your skin to heal properly and safely. Once the scar starts healing, our dermatologist will prescribe aftercare guidelines to accelerate the process and reduce scarring. Treating the post-treatment wound prevents infections and reduces the chances of mole regrowth.

What are Some Mole Removal Aftercare Tips?

• Wear sunscreen on the treated areas before leaving your house. Direct sun exposure can slow the healing process and scar your skin.
• Keep the treated area clean and dry to prevent it from getting infected.
• Moisturize your skin frequently, as moles can regrow on dry skin. Furthermore, dry skin makes it harder to remove post-treatment scars.
• Drink lots of water to keep your skin hydrated.

Benefits of Mole Removal

Removing moles offers you various cosmetic and medical benefits, such as:

• Adds to your beauty
• Increases your self-confidence
• It helps in detecting cancer in its early stages
• Stops the mole from growing in size, preventing it from becoming cancerous

What is the Mole Removal Cost in Chennai?

The cost of a mole-removal treatment depends on the mole size, the number of moles, the number of sessions, and the type of laser technology used.
